Do you outsource your work to freelance writers overseas?

No. Our writers work in-house and live in the U.S. Unlike most other resume writing mills, Klaxos does NOT send any writing projects to a network of freelance writers and hope they do a good job. Klaxos writers have been working and learning with the same, small internal team for many years. This continuity, combined with our industry experience, enables us to deliver high-quality work, customized to your goals.

What do job recruiters think of your resume layout?

The resume layout Klaxos uses follows the guidelines promoted by the Association of Executive Recruiting, the Society for Human Resource Management, and the Professional Association of Resume Writers. It is what job recruiters are expecting to see.

The science behind the layout is intended to increase your ranking with resume scanning technology and with “human” resources.

Pro tips: Klaxos uses Calibri font, which is a narrow sans-serif typeface, like Arial/Helvetica, thereby allowing more text characters per line. The phrase “self-directed and driven” when read by a recruiter increases their likelihood of calling that applicant for an interview by 23%.

What qualifications do your writers have?

Since 2009, our writers have been working and learning with the same, small internal team.

We have a combined 100+ years of career-oriented business writing experience.

Why is your resume layout more successful than resumes with fancy styling?

Applicant tracking software (ATS) contains an algorithm that scans and ranks your submitted resume. Then, a human will evaluate the top 5%-10% of applications based on the ranking assigned by the ATS. Algorithms cannot read resumes that contain logos, pictures, symbols, tables, fancy fonts, headers, footers, colors, and shadings. Resumes with these features are more likely to rank at the bottom as they are not able to be scanned. 90% of recruiters read resumes on their phone, fancy formatting makes the resume distorted and impossible to read. The layout on our resume writing service makes it more likely to pass ATS filters and onto being seen by a human. Resumes with unknown headings like Affiliations, Publications, or Memberships may cause the ATS to reject a resume. Although parsing algorithms can usually read a PDF, it is better to submit your resume in Microsoft Word. Similar scanning technology is used by the LinkedIn search.

Will this require a lot of work by me?

No, but this is an interactive process. You are the only person with specific knowledge about your experiences, skills, accomplishments, and goals. Your writer will need your collaborative input by providing information in our short questionnaire and during revisions, if requested.

Which industries or skill functions do your writers have experience?

Since 2009, our internal writers have written 5,000+ profiles and resumes for over 100+ industries and functions, including military-to-civilian transition, college students, and early career recent graduates. While 70% of our clients reside within the U.S., 30% are located in other countries, from Australia to the United Arab Emirates. Review the numerous sample client profile and resumes on our examples webpage. If you do not see an example for your function, email us, and we will send you one.

How do you communicate with clients?
